Chapter 838: Chapter 840: A New Understanding
The Gambling Stone Field wasn’t the only place that wasn’t peaceful; the entire Capital City wasn’t peaceful on this day.
On the surface, everything seed calm, but beneath the surface, there was a lot of unseen movent.
After a busy day at the Gambling Stone Field, Chu Ge and his group, including Lin Dong and Lin Zhao, returned to the villa.
Jian Chunqiu was nowhere to be found. When they went upstairs, the eting room’s door was open, but Jian Chunqiu was no longer inside.
Chu Ge didn’t call to find him. Since Jian Chunqiu went out on his own, it ant he had his own matters to attend to.
However, what surprised and intrigued them was that Gu Tong ca back with them to the villa.
Lin Dong cheerfully put his arm around Gu Tong’s shoulder and joked, "Gu Tong, did you co to taste Miss Ouyang’s cooking tonight?"
Ever since Ouyang Die arrived, as long as they didn’t eat out, it was Ouyang Die who did the cooking. But surprisingly, her culinary skills didn’t seem like those of a lady from a prestigious family, because the food she made was truly delicious.
Gu Tong rolled his eyes at him; he only ca because he heard Chu Ge wanted to help Lin Zhao open his governor and conception vessels to enhance his Ancient Martial Arts, which he was curious about.
How did it turn into coming for Ouyang Die’s cooking in Lin Dong’s words?
Communicating with a foodie indeed feels like there’s a gap.
Gu Tong shrugged, thought about it, but now he had no legitimate reason to convince them not to suspect anything, so he went along with Lin Dong, "Yeah, why? You’re not welcoming ?"
Lin Dong chuckled, "Why wouldn’t we welco you? Even if you moved into the villa, we’d be happy to have you."
Gu Tong couldn’t stand Lin Dong’s intimate contact and pushed him away awkwardly, "You’re a grown man, what kind of behavior is putting an arm around another like that?"
Lin Dong scoffed, "What, just because I’m not a girl, you’re not happy about my affections?"
Gu Tong rolled his eyes at him and said nothing more.
Lin Zhao was quietly following along; he was quite nervous because he heard that entering the Ancient Martial Arts wasn’t sothing everyone could do; it was selective. He was very worried that he wasn’t suited for it. Having finally made the decision, he was afraid it would all be for nothing if he wasn’t suitable.
Chu Ge, seeing Lin Zhao’s conflicted expression, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don’t worry, since I’m suggesting that you enter the Ancient Martial Arts, it ans I believe in your physical and other qualities. I believe you can do it."
With Chu Ge’s assurance, Lin Zhao nodded heavily and said to Chu Ge, "Then I’ll trouble you, Mr. Chu."
"Alright, don’t worry, it’s only about ten minutes, a very short ti. Just close your eyes, you don’t have to do anything, just relax and enjoy."
Lin Dong said with a grin.
Huo Tianqian shook his head a little helplessly, "Lin Dong, do you have any idea how excruciating those ten minutes can be?"
Lin Dong looked speechlessly at Huo Tianqian. He was just trying to hype Lin Zhao up, but what Huo Tianqian said only added more pressure on Lin Zhao, didn’t it?
"Mr. Huo, can’t you ever not tell the truth? Can’t you see how tense Lin Zhao is right now?" Lin Dong complained.
Huo Tianqian chuckled and said, "Even if I don’t say it, do you think Lin Zhao won’t feel it himself shortly? Now that I’ve told him, he’ll be ntally prepared. I believe if he’s chosen to enter the Ancient Martial Arts, it ans he’s thoroughly prepared, right?"
Lin Dong thought about it and found that Huo Tianqian’s depiction made so sense too.
"Lin Zhao, don’t worry, the pain isn’t really that bad."
Lin Dong could only comfort him like this.
Chu Ge looked at them sowhat speechlessly, "Alright, you’re acting like it’s really painful."
Lin Dong and Huo Tianqian both looked over at Chu Ge at the sa ti, knowing fully well about the pain themselves!
They’ve experienced it deeply!
Feeling the gaze they directed at him, Chu Ge awkwardly coughed lightly and said to Lin Zhao, "If you’re ready, co with ."
Lin Zhao nodded, took a deep breath, and followed behind Chu Ge, going upstairs.
Gu Tong also wanted to follow because his intent was to see how Chu Ge intended to help Lin Zhao step into the Ancient Martial Arts.
But after only a few steps, Lin Dong stopped him, "Hey hey hey, you can’t go up."
Gu Tong looked at him in confusion, "Why?"
Lin Dong shrugged, "Because it’s Mr. Chu’s habit! Whether he’s treating soone or helping them enhance their Ancient Martial Arts, he doesn’t like to be disturbed."
Gu Tong looked speechlessly at Lin Dong; what was the point of him coming here then?
Suddenly, Lin Dong leaned in closer to Gu Tong with a mysterious look, "Would you like Mr. Chu to help you enhance your Ancient Martial Arts too?"
Gu Tong’s lip twitched.
Lin Dong lightly coughed and said, "Don’t see Ancient Martial Arts as filled with dangers, once you’re in, you’ll find everything changes, everything becos a novelty. So, are you considering it?"
Lin Dong winked mysteriously at Gu Tong, grinning as he watched him.
Gu Tong simply didn’t know what to say to Lin Dong. Suddenly, he felt Lin Dong had a kind of adorably foolish trait, sowhat silly.
Gu Tong didn’t bother to respond to Lin Dong and just walked to the sofa and sat down.
Lin Dong continued his heartfelt speech, "Gu Tong, I really think my suggestion is good; you should consider it. If so, wouldn’t the three of us all know martial arts then? We could spar a little in our free ti."
Huo Tianqian, who had been silent on the side, quietly watched Lin Dong and Gu Tong. On Gu Tong, he always felt a special aura, a familiarity much like an Ancient Martial Arts aura.
Yet this very aura made him have doubts.
He found it very puzzling because, at first sight, he felt Gu Tong seed like an Ancient Martial Artist. But upon closer inspection, he seed no different from ordinary people.
In the end, doubting his own judgnt, Huo Tianqian always thought he might have misjudged.
After all, if Gu Tong knew Ancient Martial Arts, why would Chu Ge still bring Lin Zhao in as well?
At the Gambling Stone Field, having two people who knew Ancient Martial Arts was enough.
Thinking of this, Huo Tianqian shook his head, well, why think so much?
anwhile, Lin Dong was still going on, having moved from Ancient Martial Arts to life philosophy, giving Gu Tong and Huo Tianqian a new understanding of him.
A chatterbox.
